One of the first things Ann said as we talked about her wedding was how she had never wanted engagement pictures. Too cheesy and posed. So she didn’t want them. Until she saw Shelly and Ryan’s, that is. Ann and Shelly are really good friends, and I the honor of shooting Shelly’s wedding last year. So as we sat sipping iced chai’s and talking about her wedding, Ann told me that when she saw Shelly and Ryan’s engagement pictures, she changed her mind. Ummm, can you say FLATTERED?! Seriously one of the best compliments I’ve ever received :)
I’ll be completely honest, as we first started the shoot, I was a bit nervous. I felt like I had some big expectations to fill! Only a little bit of pressure. Haha. Fortunately, though, Ann and Justin are completely in love and adorably easy to photograph, as you’ll see below! Turns out I had nothing to worry about ;) Enjoy a few of my favorites from this gorgeous couple’s engagement sesh!!
Justin started off wearing the sweater he wore when Ann first saw him. SO cute.
Unfortunately though, it was hot. Like, REEEALLY hot. Even though it doesn’t look like it. (Let’s just say I was embarrassingly sweaty. Oh, TMI??) Needless to say, Justin took the sweater off after a few minutes. Haha.
Adorable much?
Justin, you’re going to make a dapper groom!
Ann, you are so gorgeous…
Love these next ones!
Aaaand more favorites below :)
Ann and Justin, thanks for driving to meet me, waiting patiently, and putting up with the heat. Haha. But more so, thank you for entrusting me to document your love!! I had such a great time with you both, I know your wedding is going to be just as fun :) XO
I’m just wondering where this I located! These are beautiful!
Thanks so much Monica! This is an apple orchard in Provo, Utah.
